Audio Bibles
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:1 - But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:2 - People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:3 - without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:4 - treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:5 - having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:6 - They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:7 - always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:8 - Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:9 - But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.

A Final Charge to Timothy

Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:10 - You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:11 - persecutions, sufferings—what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:12 - In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:13 - while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:14 - But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:15 - and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:16 - All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:17 - so that the servant of God[fn] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
